Stages of the 2013 Tour de France

Stage 1, Porto-Vecchio to Bastia, June 29: 212km

1 / 21

For the first time in its 100 editions, the Tour de France will travel to the island of Corsica. But instead of opening the race with a short Prologue time trial, this year organizers have decided to start with a long, flat road stage along the island’s eastern coastline. Expect a field sprinter with a powerful lead-out—someone like Mark Cavendish or Andre Greipel—to don the first yellow jersey of the 2013 Tour.
